Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on Land Titles in the United States, Vol. 1 The following two volumes on Land Titles in the United States are laid by the author before his brethren of the legal profession with a painful knowledge of their shortcomings. The American law of real estate is, in all its practical workings, the creature of statute: - little else but names and underlying ideas is "common law," and not much more is traditional equity. The American statutes have, indeed, a great family resemblance. But the lawyer, in opening a text-book, does not look for the broad outlines. They are common to the whole country. He looks for those details that will fit the case which he has then in hand, and the state in which that case is to be tried. The law writer must therefore seek to make himself fully acquainted with the statutes of each state, in all their details; in the points, great and small, in which they diverge from each other; and with the decisions in each state which bear upon and interpret these statutes. Among the forty-odd states, several must, of necessity, agree on almost every question, as it cannot be answered either by their legislatures or by their courts in as many different ways as there are states; and, fortunately, there has been much borrowing among law makers and law construers. Yet the variety between state and state seems interminable, and is much aggravated by frequent changes, - statutes amended and repealed, decisions overruled or ignored. The work of arrangement is overwhelming. The writer is fully conscious that he has missed many of the modern statutes which were enacted since the last revisions in their respective states. Even Kent, in the fourth volume of his Commentaries, in which he treated the law of Real Estate when the number of states was so much smaller than it is now, and when changes in general laws were much rarer, overlooked legislative acts of pretty long standing. Why should his humble follower, dealing with twice as many states and territories, and with the infinitude of new experiments in legislation, fare any better?
